NYC Restaurant Week Asks: Can You Pronounce "Prix Fixe?"

New York City's highly anticipated winter Restaurant Week starts later this month, but the hype is building thanks to a hilarious new video.

New York City's highly anticipated Restaurant Week, when locals and visitors alike can score $38 set-price dinners at some of the city's best tables, starts February 17. While the exact list of nearly 300 participating restaurants hasn't yet been revealed, one certainty is that foreign terms are still tripping up diners. Proof? The funny video below, from the city's tourism agency, which asks people passing through Grand Central Terminal to pronounce the term prix fixe.

It's the first in a series of videos NYC & Company will release daily in the run-up to February 10, when reservations for Restaurant Week open. The event—including any mangled menu pronunciations—will run through March 7. The official Restaurant Week landing page has more details.
